Here is what the page “Graphic Novel Chronicles Hurricane Helene Survivors Two Years Later” contains. Two years after Hurricane Helene devastated much of the Southeast, many affected communities are still in the recovery process. A new graphic novel, "Islands in the Sky: A People's History of Hurricane Helene," collects and shares the stories of those who lived through the storm. The project uses the visual storytelling of a graphic novel to document the survivors' experiences, offering a unique perspective on the disaster and its aftermath.
William Brangham spoke with Andrew Aydin about the book for PBS News's arts and culture series, CANVAS. The conversation highlights how the graphic novel format can convey personal histories and resilience in ways that traditional reporting might not. It also underscores the ongoing challenges faced by communities as they rebuild. The full version stays on the original page, which this listing opens directly.
